I'm starting to avoid century rides that are far away and require lots of driving to get there.
I think I will not go to the Eastern Sierra Fall Century ride this year, even though it is a ride dear to my heart. I did the Marin Century last weekend instead of the Shasta Century and avoided 400 miles of driving.
I'm lucky to live in the SF Bay area where there is plenty of good road riding from my door, and more if I just take BART.
